Chapter 13 is here! I don't own Junjou Romantica at all but this fanfic? Yes I do~

Misaki POV

I stayed with usagi during the month, I only left Usagi's side to go to school and get new clothes. I didn't want to leave Usagi alone. Hi didn't act like he was getting weaker but I could tell that as the time went by, his completion was getting visibly more pale and he was getting thinner by the day. Seeing Usagi like that scared me. He was never in any pain but Usagi was spending most of his time sleeping. When he did sleep, I would always hold his hand and pray that he would stay with me. I knew it was selfish, Usagi wasn't even able to do basic things anymore, he couldn't even hold a fork so I always fed him and joked with him. Doing my best to look happy and make him happy. It was painful to be by his side, to slowly watch the one I love slowly become frailer and weaker right before my eyes.

After three weeks, I had just returned to the hospital from school.

" hi Usagi!"

I called happily as I walked over too his bedside, he smiled at me weakly. Hie kind lavender eyes lit up when I arrived.

"How was school Misaki?"

It was great me and Sumi-Sempai helped work on posters for a bake sale together, though it wasn't that great when my demon of a teacher threw his ruler at me. Can you believe it? It was metal he could have harmed me badly!"

This news caused Usagi to laugh, I loved how he laughed.

"Misaki, didn't I already tell you to stop seeing that Sempai of yours?"

"Baka Usagi! How many times do I have to tell you that Sumi-Sempai is a good guy and just a friend!"

I was happy that Usagi was acting like himself even in his condition, it always made me slightly believe Usagi was going to be okay.

I know I shouldn't get my hopes up...

It'll only end up with me becoming more upset when the time comes..

When Usagi has to leave me..

When he does I'll join him

I had made it so that I never showed my sadness in front of Usagi ever again, I made sure I always smiled and laughed with him. I couldn't let my own sadness cloud over Usagi's happiness, if I did I would begin to hate myself. I didn't want Usagi to sense this so I stored away those feelings when around him. It was simple because I was used to doing that kind of thing, I've always been doing it ever since I made my parents die, so it was easy to do it with Usagi.

"Misaki, you're so special to me I love you"

My face went red at Usagi's words, I looked away embarrassed.

"What are you saying Baka Usagi?!"

I heard Usagi chuckle slightly, he lifted his hand up weakly and took my hand in his. His fingers felt so thin and bony, as if there was no skin at all. However the warmth in them was still the same as always and made me feel better.

"But it's true Misaki, I love you so much..."

"Usagi you're acting weird? What's wrong?"

Unease was flickering inside of me, Usagi was suddenly acting unusual and I didn't know what to do.

"Nothing... I'm just tired.. Do you mind if I rest?"

Maybe Usagi's acting strange because he is just overly tired

I nodded my head and smiled, happy that Usagi was just tired.

"Of course Usagi, please rest well"

"Misaki.."

"Yes?"

Usagi's voice suddenly sounded very tired.

"Be brave okay..?"

"What's that supposed to mean? Usagi I don't understand"

"It's nothing... It seems I'm just blabbing meaninglessly from exhaustion"

I sighed as Usagi closed his eyes and fell asleep calmly, he always looked so peaceful while sleeping, even though he was so weak. I yawned.

I might as well fall asleep as well, I leaned on the bed and fell asleep, my hands still within Usagi's hands. My dreams were all happy, I dreamt of all the time I spent with Usagi and I also had a dream where Usagi got better and we could go home together, we smiled and laughed together, I yelled at him and he always won our arguments.

I woke up a while later, my hands had begun to feel cold. I opened my eyes to see my hands were still in Usagi's.

Why are they so cold?

I got up right away and looked at Usagi, he was still.

"Usagi?.."

I felt my heart pounding against my chest as I didn't get a response from my silver haired lover.

"...Usagi?..."

I placed my head on his chest, I heard no heartbeat.

No... No.. This can't be happening... He had a week left! Usagi!

I hit the buzzer and Dr. Kusama came rushing in, the raven haired man didn't ask any questions. He went straight to Usagi and began to examine him. After a few seconds he backed away, his head hung low.

"I'm sorry Takahashi-Kun it seems Usami-San died a few hours ago... It seems like he pulled out the heart monitor so as not to alert anyone"

I couldn't believe his words. I looked at Usagi, tears were spilling down my face.

You left me....

How could you leave me?

Usagi....

I'll join you shortly....

'Be brave okay?'

Usagi's words flashed through my mind.

No...

I can't die... If I did..

Usagi would want to see me again...

I cupped the face of my lover in my hands and smiled at him.

Usagi..

Please wait for me Kay?

I'll join you when my time is rightfully up..

So please be patient?

I love you...

USAGI POV

My time in the hospital went by swiftly, it was filled with happiness whenever my Misaki was by my side. He was almost always with me so I was often happy. I spent a lot of my time sleeping but I always had this warmth in my hand as I slept, it was comforting. I couldn't do much on my own, I didn't mind though because it allowed me to be babied by my precious Misaki, he even spoon fed me. However I could tell I was looking weaker, when I looked at my hands I was always shocked by how bony they were. I loved how my Misaki was able to smile so kindly towards me, he still loved me even though I was slipping away from his grasp. I could tell I was fading.

I had been in the hospital for three weeks, Misaki had just arrived here after his day at school. I could feel that this was my last day, I couldn't tell how but I just had the feeling.

" hi Usagi!"

Seeing Misaki's cheerful face lit up my mood, I smiled and greeted the emerald eyed boy that I loved so much.

"How was school Misaki?"

"It was great me and Sumi-Sempai helped work on posters for a bake sale together, though it wasn't that great when my demon of a teacher threw his ruler at me. Can you believe it? It was metal he could have harmed me badly!"

Silly Misaki..

I laughed at the way my Misaki was brimming with energy as he spoke about his day.

"Misaki, didn't I already tell you to stop seeing that Sempai of yours?"

"Baka Usagi! How many times do I have to tell you that Sumi-Sempai is a good guy and just a friend!"

I wanted to act like everything was normal, I wanted to slip away without any hassle or extra grief for my innocent Misaki.

I want you to live Misaki..

I'll do my best to leave you in a way that will not shatter your fragile heart..

I'll make sure you won't kill yourself

Even though my Misaki was always smiling and laughing, I knew he was actually upset on the inside. I didn't want to bring it up before because I knew that if Misaki knew that I knew, he would hate himself. I knew he would because I've been with him for so long now that my little Misaki was so predictable and easy to read. He may have been able to fool Takahiro, but I won't allow my Misaki to fool me.

"Misaki, you're so special to me I love you"

I want to give you the strength to live

Misaki's face went red and he looked away embarrassed.

You're just so cute..

"What are you saying Baka Usagi?!"

I couldn't stop myself from chuckling, it felt like old times together. I took my Misaki's hands within my own, wanting to feel the warmth I love so much.

"But it's true Misaki, I love you so much..."

I'll love you forever my dear Misaki

"Usagi you're acting weird? What's wrong?"

I could feel myself getting weaker, I could tell my Misaki was also tired

"Nothing... I'm just tired.. Do you mind if I rest?"

Rest peacefully I'm not scared

I know we will meet again

My Misaki nodded his head looking a little relieved.

"Of course Usagi, please rest well"

"Misaki.."

"Yes?"

I could feel weakness settling into my bones. I knew my time was ending rapidly. I felt somewhat thankful that I couldn't feel any pain.

"Be brave okay..?"

You're allowed to cry, but please be brave

"What's that supposed to mean? Usagi I don't understand"

It means live Misaki , live and be happy

"It's nothing... It seems I'm just blabbing meaninglessly from exhaustion"

I heard Misaki sigh then I closed my eyes, after a while I felt Misaki fall asleep. Not wanting to cause panic for my Misaki, I unplugged my heart monitor.

You can't fight death, I can hear it calling.

I'm fine, I've lived with Misaki happily all these years..

I hope I don't see Misaki again after this for a long time.. I want him to lead a happy life then reunite when his time comes naturally.

My Misaki, you've taught me so many things, you've taught me what it felt like to love and be loved back.

You've taught me that happiness isn't bought with money.. Though I still tried to spoil you because I wanted you to try new things.

Misaki please don't forget me...

I'll be waiting for you patiently, if its for you..

I'll even wait until the end of time until I could see your innocent and happy smile again.

I never knew a person could contain so much kindness and selflessness until I met you..so please my dear innocent and sweet Misaki

Be brave

And live on

I'll always love you even after death my love.

I relaxed and allowed my consciousness to peacefully fade away.

Me: that's the end of the story~

Misaki: you killed him....

Me: not all stories have a happy ending...

Misaki: still...

Me: plus if all my stories end happily it's too predictable~

Misaki: Usagi...

Me: hehe hope ya liked the story! Please criticize so I can learn from mistakes and improve~
